6 gadgets that women would love to have

Here's what to buy on your next trip abroad for your squeaky white teeth, flawless skin and voluminous mane

We all love our perfectly manicured hands, silky hair and squeaky clean skin. But, on a trip, there’s no time to step into the salon and undergo treatments.

The solution to this is really simple — if you cannot go to the salon, get the salon to you. So on your next trip abroad pick up a few gadgets that will give you that salon treatment at home.

While some of the gadgets are for women only, we don’t see why the metrosexual male won’t fancy a few:

Glo brilliant teeth whitening systemIt’s said that a smile increases the value of your face and your smile is only as good as the set of teeth it displays. GLO stands for Guided Light Optic technology, which uses LED light to whiten your teeth. The set contains a closed system mouthpiece with strategically placed heat resistors and LED lights. The whitening gel is activated with the heat produced from the LED light, giving faster results. The pre-timed eight-minute session results in teeth which are whiter and a smile that is bigger.
